We just received a press release from the British Columbia Wine Institute announcing that ChefmeetsBCGrape raised $40,000 for the Arts Clun Theatre, the biggest not-for-profit organization of its kind in Western Canada.

The largest annual celebration of the Wines of British Columbia and local food in Vancouver, ChefmeetsBCGrape showcased 95 BC wineries pouring more than 375 BC VQA wines, and 15 top restaurants to a crowd of more than 500 at the Vancouver Convention Centre.
